Shakira Has a Wasp Named After Her

Here's some news sure to brighten up your Monday: Shakira, Jimmy Fallon, Ellen DeGeneres and more celebs all have wasps named after them. Say whaaat?

It's true: According to GMA Network, scientists have discovered 24 new species of a certain kind of wasp that uses caterpillars as hosts for their larvae. (Yum!) One of those species causes the host caterpillar to twist in all different sorts of ways as it dies, which reminded the scientists of Shakira's hip-shaking ways. They've named this kind of wasp "A. shakirae," after 'The Voice' judge.
